First Time For Everything

by Peter Williams   Dec 11, 2005


Time to live for myself,
And no one else.
Here we go...
Take it in stride,
Because we're going for a ride.
For the moment is right,
Let the world know that I won't give up this fight.
I did it your way,
Now it's time to do it mine.
Don't wait for the sun to shine,
Because I'm feeling just fine.
Time to start something new.
Past mistakes are never forgotten,
Especially those that I haven't made.
No more anger,
No more pain,
No more sorrow.
Don't live for tomorrow,
Live for today.
Here we go...
What do you say?
I'm ready,
I always was.
It's not complex,
It's just a simple hello.
What happens next?
You and I must never know.
Time to pick up the sword once again.
Drink that last beer,
Smoke that last cig.
Give me a cheer,
I don't get paid for this gig.
Time to make a move,
Make it a good one.
I doubt this will work,
I am my own foe.
Take a deep breath,
Because...
Here we go.
